Microscopy analysis technique

摘要

A method and apparatus for the analysis of cell nuclei may use a system where images captured from a bright field microscope are analysed and information is retrieved that give quantitative information of the different type of chromatin within the cell nuclei for example Hetrochromatin and Euchromatin. The method is based on segmented cell nuclei. Quantitative information is determined related to the greyscale distribution of the different areas of the chromatin types and the object structure within these different areas.
